I'm not too familiar with his work, but it still sucks to lose someone in the VO community. And according too many VAs on twitter, he was great guy in general. My condolences to his friends, family, and the VO community in general.

He was fantastic as Kostas and Nader in Three Houses.

R.I.P, Brad.

That's a heartbreaker. He had a rising voice acting career in Hollywood and he just passed away.

This is too sad for words. 43 is too young. He wasn't in my top 5 or anything, but he made Byro, Shisami, and Apoo sound scratchy and creepy sounding. RIP.

This is so sad, especially so young...and I had no idea how much of an impact he had with other VA's and mentoring younger VA's.

RIP Mr. Venable.

Might be worth adding an update to the article?
